So, after analyzing this album step-by-step I just can award the highest score for “The Mystery Of Time”. Thank you Tobias for this stunning piece of work. Music IS art and “The Mystery Of Time” a true masterpiece. It combines so many elements of Power Metal, Classic, Hard Rock, Symphony Metal and more and makes it its own. There is so much variety on here, it never gets boring

There are a lot of metal operas out there, and I have to deal with
that. If something is very successful or even not successful then other
people may feel inspired by it. Its Timo Tolkki (laughs) what can I say
, hes a great guy and he does what he does. I wish him the best of
luck.”
